I can't say I knew of Camacho until /r/boxing mentioned of him, but as a lover of the sport and as a human being, this is just sad. No person deserves to go this way. My condolences to the family, friends, and fans. Really a shame.

Indeed very sad. There is a saying in Spanish that goes "Dime con quien andas, y te dire quien eres." It translates to something along the lines of "Tell me who you're with, and I'll tell you who you are."

His drug use and involvement in drugs has been very broadly covered, but mostly by the Spanish media. I hate to say it so bluntly and cruelly, but he had it coming. Yes, no one deserves to die in this fashion, but he knew this and still risked his life to live this life.

Both the boxing and Latino communities will lose a great one when his family decides to disconnect him.
